Luxury Hotels in Las Vegas

Palms Place Hotel & Spa

Contemporary luxury is the focus at this non-gaming, off-the-Strip hotel.

Palms Place, located next to the original Palms Casino, takes the boutique hotel concept off the Strip. Unlike in most Las Vegas hotels, you are not greeted by the constant dinging of slot machines when you walk in, as this is a non-gaming property. Palms Place is about understated, contemporary luxury without the usual Sin City bells and whistles. Its 599 rooms occupy 47 stories, and include 600-square-foot studios, 1,200-square-foot one-bedroom suites and 1,800-square-foot two-bedroom suites, all with kitchens, two flat-screen TVs and airy, loft-style design. In addition, the glamorous penthouses showcase panoramic views of the Strip.

At Drift Spa, the classic Turkish hammam is a sexy co-ed experience; spa treatments are both modern and traditional, and notable features include hot and cold pools, curved saunas and beautiful mosaic tiles. For an escape from the crowds, the sixth-floor, 50,000-square-foot Palms Place pool area boasts waterfalls, stone gardens, a fireplace and a Jacuzzi. Palms Place drinking and dining includes Café 6, serving creative comfort food, and Rojo Lounge, offering cocktails in retro vinyl booths. Those who can't stay away from the action too long (gaming or otherwise) can take the Skytube (an enclosed, elevated walkway) between Palms Place and the Palms Casino.
